Spring is a season when you want to try something new. It's fun to walk around the city, but I want to deepen my knowledge a little ... I went to visit the Tokyo Stock Exchange with that feeling!

We got a brief leaflet and started the tour immediately. It goes up to the 2nd floor by escalator.

The market center immediately jumped into my eyes. A familiar company name goes around on a circular electronic bulletin board called "chicker". This is it! I wanted to see this! It seems that the rotation speed is faster than I expected ... If you look at it all the time, you will turn your eyes.

You can also get off at another escalator and get closer to the market center. Guys, you are working very hard. I don't care about my eyes (laughs).

In the past, there was a witness place here, and people were rushing up their hands ... young people today don't know such a sight!
